Listen "Court delays: Reducing the impact"
Episode Synopsis
In the UK, there are currently more than 370,000 cases waiting to be heard in magistrate's courts and 60,000 cases waiting to come before the Crown Courts, which handles the most serious cases.
Today's episode welcomes Dame Vera Baird, Victims' Commissioner for England and Wales, and Harvey Redgrave, CEO of Crest Advisory – the UK research team dedicated to crime and justice issues. Hosted by Catch22's Josie Cochrane, we discuss the impact the delays are having on both victims and defendants, how we can reduce these delays, and how technology can reduce the burden on all involved - including for individuals, courts, and victim services themselves.
